Call for Papers: Special Issue of Molecular Physics

The Editors of Molecular Physics and the publisher (Taylor and Francis Group Ltd) are pleased to announce a Special Issue of Molecular Physics dedicated to contributions of the 7th International Liblice Conference on the Statistical Mechanics of Liquids.

Participants of the Conference are invited to contribute an article for the Special Issue.

The manuscripts will be refereed to the usual high standard. Papers which incorporate some review material will be acceptable so long as novel work is also presented. The Special Issue is scheduled to appear early in 2007. Please send an electronic version of the manuscript (in PDF or PostScript format) to the Special Issue Editor (g.jacksonimperial.ac.uk).

The deadline for the receipt of the manuscripts is 31 July 2006.

The 7th Conference followed the spirit of the previous meetings to provide an effective forum for contacts and for the exchange of ideas, with an emphasis on discussions rather than on formal presentations, highlighting achievements and challenges in both theoretical and applied aspects of the discipline.

In addition to the traditional topics,

• fundamentals of liquid-state theories
• methodology of molecular simulation
• non-equilibirum phenomena

the programme of the 7th Liblice Conference included recent specific developments in the treatment of inhomogeneous systems (interface, liquid crystals, nanosystems), aqueous systems, polymers and colloids, biomolecules and self-organizing systems, nucleation, chemically reacting systems, and supercooled/glassy states.

The list of keynote speakers included:

Dellago Ch., Vienna	Reguera D., Barcelona
de Pablo J., Madison	Rowlinson J., Oxford
Kofke D., Buffallo	Sprik M., Cambridge
Lomba E., Madrid	Theodorou D., Athens
